Is traction alopecia permanant

[CIT_Girl]

Welcome to the forum, pars and christopher77.

Pars, it's possible that you are experiencing traction alopecia and, if so, the condition should be reversible as long as the combing was not done over a prolonged period of time. If this is the case, you should see regrowth within several months. However, you may also want to consult with a physician to see if the hair loss could in fact be the beginning of MPB, in which case, you may want to begin treatment to maintain your existing hair.
